958: Successfully Cross Referenced VW Touareg Tow Module & Harness

Seems to be a lot of people in this boat, so hopefully this helps others. I had an aftermarket hitch installed on my 2012 CS, but no wiring or module. FYI my trailer has LED lights. Before having the dealer program the module, the blinkers and hazards would work on the trailer, but no brake lights. Everything worked once it was coded.

Dealer claims those 2 items are both sold separately as accessories and did me no favors to get them. Funny that I found what is most likely the cargo cover that came with the vehicle, listed on ebay and the location was from a guy 1 mile from the dealership.. I met him in a parking lot down the street from the dealer, too. Last edited by Mark7000; 06-14-2019 at 03:46 PM.

If it makes you feel any better (misery loves company?) the 2016 S I bought recently also had a factory (listed on build sheet) tow hitch, but no harness, and was also missing the cargo cover. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the wire harness that leads out to the hitch receiver is actually a separate item. The cargo cover is not. The cargo rail setup is an option (and a VERY handy one to have). I bought my S from an indie dealer. Cargo cover also missing. Readily found one on E-bay. There is a plug adapter that is required to purchase for Cayennes with the tow package; I picked one up from the dealer when I took delivery of my '13 CD. It wasn't expensive, and connected right into the harness. It was the receptacle for the 7-pin tow harness; no wiring was needed, IIRC I had to remove two screws and then insert the receptacle, then screw it back in. So I just got a stock Porsche towing kit for mine and it came with this module, harness already integrated into the trailer hitch.

The geography of the world economy. ‘Export Processing Zone,’ i.e., an area’s whose growth has been facilitated by State tax holidays and other incentive policies which were geared solely towards attracting export-oriented foreign automakers to that region. However, in the process of turning the area into a large export-only corridor, the national government has shown little interest in cultivating a native-owned auto industry, nor for that matter, serving its domestic market customer base.

Hyundai continues their bid as one of the Asian car manufacturers that pose a threat to American car companies in the US market. While they may not be as popular as Honda or Toyota in the American market, the Korea-based outfit is producing cars that can strongly compete in the global market against Toyota or Honda. This challenge is evident in their compact sport utility vehicle that is the Tucson. The Tucson is slated against Toyota's RAV4 and Honda's CR-V in the now declining SUV market. While interest in the sports utility vehicle segment is waning due to the upward surge of gas prices, Hyundai is still confident that their SUV will gain a good number of buyers. Just like a Volvo, the Hyundai Tucson comes equipped with safety features though it still cannot compete with the Sweden-based outfit when it comes to safety features. Their list of safety features includes airbags, six of them and electronic stability control that prevents rollover by keeping the car's suspension and other systems in check.

This is one of the strong selling points of the car and another is their relatively lower price. And true to Hyundai's confidence to the car they mass produced, they offer a five year or 60,000 mile warranty that is true to all trim packages of the vehicle. Additional safety features includes four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes and an electronic brake-force distribution system. Due to the safety features that the car employs, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) gave it its second highest rating which is "acceptable". Another thing that makes this Hyundai car a serious competition to the Toyota RAV4 and the CR-V is its high performance level. It has an all around great driving capability plus it has a responsive steering system that is coupled with the electronic stability control that provides great handling especially on tight turns. Its suspension system allows for a smooth ride keeping the car's occupants comfortable even on long trips. The suspension system configuration also increased the car's stability.

2019 Volkswagen Up Concept

There are cars that endure for all times. They are icons of their type, masterpieces of craftsmanship and technology; they put ideas into motion, make progress tangible and sometimes quite simply make everyday life better, more practical and enjoyable. Many of these cars carry the VW logo. Now Volkswagen is presenting - as a world premiere at the International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt - a concept car that once again has the right stuff needed to move more than just one generation. It is a small, pure and high-spirited Volkswagen that pays tribute to its environment. The overall concept is marked by an innovative, clear, intuitive functionality. The name of the concept car: up! A small car that shows a lot of size, because it offers more space than any other car of similar length (3.45 meters) and width (1.63 meters). Its engine - conceivable here are all facets of technology that can be sensibly applied - will run in the rear.

Ralf-Gerhard Willner, Director of Concept Development, has final responsibility for the technical layout of the up! He and Walter de Silva had already achieved a new balance in the mutual interaction between form and function at Volkswagen before the start of the project. Willner and de Silva in unison, "can only be achieved in a hard clash of ideas between engineers and designers. That is the only way to produce icons." That is precisely why the up! Its form is pure. It just had to look like this, no other look would do. There is nothing superf luous, and its functionality - and so also its design - speak for themselves. Simultaneously - and this is typical of Volkswagen - uncompromisingly attention was given to refining every line and every surface until we had created a friendly and masterful car. The fact that the engine of the up! That is because the up! It forges links to the Beetle.

This fact alone gives it a great deal of independence. In many areas, technology and design have melded into a vehicle architecture that is not only appealing, but is also very utilitarian. The rear end of the up! The tailgate was produced using a transparent material. Under this gate developers also integrated the high layout of the taillights. Another feature that is technically and visually new is the location of the VW logo in the tailgate; it is also located behind glass and illuminates when the light is on. The rear bumper was designed to match the "happy face" in front. The powerful appearance of the up! The wheels are flush with the sporty outboard wheel arches and side skirts. The radial design of the wheels and surfaces extending right up to the edge of the rim make the 18-inch wheels appear significantly larger than they actually are. The wheels that are arranged far outboard in the bumper areas reduce body overhangs to a minimum.

All of these features are part of an unmistakable side profile with a very long roof arch as well as clear and large surfaces. Giving shape to its style here are the large doors and the lateral window surfaces, which incline sharply upward at the height of the rear wheel arch and thereby help to form the very independent C-pillar design. Mounting the engine in the rear opened up entirely new interior concepts. Relative to its exterior size, the space offering is exceptionally forward-thinking. The same is true of its variability: Except for the driver's seat, all other seats can be folded and removed. Since they are designed as light shells, they can be quickly stowed in one of the cargo areas - besides the front trunk there is also one in the rear - to free up space. Afterwards, the entire passenger compartment length can be utilized as a storage area for especially bulky objects. To achieve the high level of seating comfort that is usual at Volkswagen, besides their ergonomic design, in the case of the up!
